Fuel warning over missing cargo chip
The missing cargo ship which reportedly sailed through the English Channel after it had been boarded by pirates, will only have enough fuel to last a few more days at sea, a maritime expert said today.
Nick Davis, of the Merchant Maritime Warfare Centre, said that depending on how fast the Arctic Sea had been travelling, the ship would be likely to become “fuel exhausted” in a matter of days, meaning that it would have to dock to replenish supplies.
